Chapter 5

Her cries gradually subsided, but her eyes were slightly swollen in pain.

Navia’s fragile body was exhausted from all of this. She laid on the bed weakly.

Rattle!

A strange sound was heard outside the door. Rattling sounds echoed outside the room followed by a peal of laughter.

She stared emotionlessly at the door. By now, all her feelings had dried up. She didn’t even need to try and guess the person who was trying to prank her. After all, she had experienced this prank numerous times in her past lives.

‘Wood.”

Wood had often locked Navia in her room.

Just as she expected, the door was locked. Navia reached out her hand and touched the door.

The door was made from dark wood and it was dirty. There was a distinct indent on the door, but it was never replaced.

Why did she long for a family? What was so great about a family? It was all pointless.

No one would suddenly appear and save her from this nightmare.

She was alone and she only had herself to depend on.

“If you try to harm me, then you have to pay the price.”

Isn’t that right, Wood?
